Applications call for GSA MyGalileoDrone Competition 2020

The aim of the contest is to design, develop, test, and prepare for commercial launch a drone-based application and/or serviceable to provide a position and/or time fix by using Galileo -enabled receiver. The use of Galileo shall be understood in a broad sense, and not limited to the navigation components in the flying platform.

The MyGalileoDrone Competition is open to the integration of Galileo in any of the drone components or other equipment supporting the operations, that is, the flying platform (autopilot or another payload), the ground control station, or any other devices supporting the implementation of the application, such as smartphone, as well as external ones, such as U-Space services.
